Review: This record player is a great starting point for the audiophile. The Debut line can be upgraded at your timeline but from the box it has great sound, great feet stabilizers, easy to setup and level out. An upgrade to the stylus made my baselines come alive. I was able to get a free upgrade at the time from Pro-Ject directly. Highly recommend that upgrade from the Rainier to Olympia stylus. Item came with great cables easy to use and hook up with some powered speakers from Kanto. Will continue to upgrade but this is a stable amazing platform the way it is. Save for this item, don't settle.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I'm looking for a machine to play my 33s and my old wax 78s.  I'm not too demanding other than semi simple to use.  Would this machine be good?**
A: I own a slightly older version of this record player. Appears to be very similar except on/off/rpm button placements. Assuming that’s the case, the player supports 78s. The default buttons switch between 45 & 33, to play 78 you have to lift off the platter and slip the drive belt to a smaller internal gear. Haven’t done it but should be easy enough. It also recommends changing needles, but I suppose that depends on how heavily you’re playing 78 to make it worth that hassle.

**Q: What is a good receiver for this turn table? i am about to buy the sony str dh190, but are there any that are better for a few more dollars? $300ish**
A: The Sony STR DH190 is a receiver that will work since it has a phono input.  When it comes to receivers many of the brand names (Sony, Denon, Marantz, Onkyo, etc) all have similar performance at the sub $300 range.  Personally I'd spend $300 on a used, 2 year old $500 receiver.  You'll get the same HDMI features and more power which will usually sounds better overall.   Amplifier technology has not changed much in the past couple of years.  Then look at an upgraded phono stage.  The ones in $300 receivers work but are not impressive.

**Q: Is the evo compatible with rotel integrated amp and 20yo paradigm speakers?**
A: Thanks for your question. Including the Rotel model number would be very helpful. The Rotel likely has a built-in phono preamp and would be compatible with the Debut Carbon EVO.

**Q: What is the height of the unit without the cover? So surface to top of the tone arm weight?**
A: 5 inches

I was originally set on purchasing the Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB but they were out of stock and I wasn't going to wait two or three months for them to come back in stock. So I started doing research and I'm glad I did. As an audiophile who is newer to the vinyl scene, I was unaware of some very key points: a) Flashy features and gizmos does not always mean quality b) There are three types of vinyl players out there: plain old cheap bare necessities, DJ players, and players meant for audiophiles. c) The more features usually means sacrifice in sound quality. d) Plain and simple might mean the quality is in the hidden elements of the vinyl player. This player is definitely meant for audiophiles and produces a wonderful sound quality. The isolation on this unit is impressive and is a vast improvement over the Pro-Ject DC; the carbon fiber tone arm is super lightweight but strong, the anti-skate system actually works, the motor is fully isolated from the player to prevent hums and interference and is carefully designed for speed moderation; fully manual tone arm operation is great for those who like to sit and absorb the music; the phono cabling provided is impressive quality; the cartridge included produces a wonderful rich sound. There is so much to like about this, especially for a first time vinyl player for me. I'm glad I spent the extra money as the sound is impressive. I've compared it to a few other units including some higher end Technics tables and was stunned at the clarity and richness of the sound this player produces.
